NFL hopes to inspire kids to get fit

The National Football League wants to encourage kids to ward off obesity by exercising an hour every day, so they created NFL Play 60, where kids can find ideas for active play, learn about fitness, find a Game Planner to track their progress and see a video starring Stephanie and Sportacus from the kids’ show LazyTown.

The NFL initiative also include player appearances at schools and community programs to emphasize the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
